Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

Here’s the thing that MAGA cult doesn’t understand… Trump doesn’t need you anymore. Trump is doing whatever he wants including the Epstein coverup and giving an air base to Qatar 🇶🇦

Trump doesn’t need you, you were his mark, he used you … now it’s f**k MAGA

Ron Filipkowski @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 1d

Trump and Hegseth give Qatar an airbase in Idaho and Qatari pilots will be flying jets over American airspace. Their lavish gifts and personal business deals with Trump worth billions really paid off for them.

There are more of us than there are of them—and we know our right to assemble peacefully and protest. I’m counting on my fellow Americans to prove that at the No Kings protest on Oct. 18.

‘We’re fighting for you!’ Podcaster Ben Meiselas on taking on the Maga media – and winning the ratings battle

His channel, MeidasTouch, puts out 15 videos a day exposing Republican failings – and it is getting bigger audiences than Joe Rogan’s. Is this the champion the American left has been waiting for?

Ezra Levin’s message here is perfect.

Despite all their best efforts at scaring us, it’s clear the goon squad regime are the ones who are scared.

Let’s make it the biggest demonstration in American history.

Tell them no f*cking kings.

"This is not about Democrats or Republicans ... No one wants a government in which officials accept cash bribes for government action. That is the stuff of banana republics or the type of Beltway swamp that Mr. Trump swore to drain."

In past week, Trump sent troops from Texas to invade Chicago, sent Blackhawk helicopter and ICE agents to attack an apartment building in Chicago and indicted NY AG Tish James for investigating him. If you read about this in another country you'd say that was a fascist regime. You'd be right.
